^ You probably guessed right, though it won't hurt to ask.

Speaking generally. So we can remove any negativity here, this should be a positive thread about where MB is going and not one about it's misconceived demise.
Just to echo Big3's opening post. He's not actually saying anything is wrong with MB as it is, but he does raise the question that this place is in danger of losing it's appeal after a while.
That certainly seems to be the case with some of the longer standing members who have left over the years. And it always seems the case that those older members that do leave, do so feeling a little disillusioned.
And it needn't be like that.
Not when you can get those members actively helping the site move forward in order to keep their interest.
